With us you will find electrodes and batteries for the defibrillator Nihon Kohden Cardiolife. The electrodes have a durability of about 1 1/2 years and the battery lasts about 4 years. Electrodes are always used up if they are used or opened because the gel on them will dry out quickly. The battery can be used several times, but it depends on how long the defibrillator is used on each occasion.
Nihon Kohden Cardiolifes have several good features. Their latest model is one of the fastest defibrillators to deliver a shock. From start-up to possible impact it takes about 15 seconds. Another good function is that you can perform cardiopulmonary resuscitation at the same time as the analysis is carried out by the defibrillator, thereby minimizing the interruption of cardiopulmonary resuscitation. The user can also switch between adult and child mode with the push of a button, on most other defibrillators it is required to replace the entire electrode, but this is not the case with the Nihon Kohden.
With the help of one of our wall mounts or cabinets, the defibrillator can be placed visibly and safely. An emergency sign above makes it even more visible and easier to find when you are stressed. Don't forget to also equip your Nihon Kohden with a CPR / AED kit that includes scissors, razor, gloves and breathing protection to facilitate the use of the defibrillator.
